Trust me, just forget about the girlfriend thing and embrace your productivity. Seriously, i'll bet you're the productivity king right now. I used to be you, I did some amazing work, I had the work ethic of a new immigrated china man looking to bring his whole family over, I was working 16 hours a day... and I LOVED IT. When I got my first girlfriend (at 20) my productivity crashed. The emotional roller coaster that women put me through, it was too much. We broke up after 3 months, and I immediately started dating a girl (its been almost 2 years now) who was a mechanical engineer (closer to my level of introverted) Life is more stable, but i'm nowhere close to where I used to be. A girlfriend is almost like another full time job, except it costs you money instead of earning you money.
